Abstract

The message of God’s mercy has become the subject of a great extent of studies taken mostly up from the perspective of Dogmatic Theology or Spiritual Theology. It seems the matter of social interpretation of this message still remains wide open. Meanwhile, The Diary and John Paul II’s Encyclical Letter Dives in misericordia as well, which the writings of St. Faustina constitute an unquestionable inspiration, are far from interpreting mercy merely in an ascetic and individual dimension. Both of the texts distinctly encourage broadening the social aspect of the interpretation of mercy as the element of the renovation of the social life, which is the subject of this study.

Keywords:

social life, God′s Mercy, Saint Faustian Kowalska, Encyclical on the Mercy of God „Dives in misericordia”, justice
